• Sepsis

  The etiopathogenesis of intracranial venous thrombosis in the neonate is diverse: asphyxia, dehydration, polycythemia, sepsis-meningitis and difficult delivery are the main causes. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Sepsis. Hypotension. Hypovolaemia. Hypertension. Altered cerebral blood flow. Presentation Symptoms Most cases present by the third day of life. However, much less commonly there is delayed haemorrhage occurring after the first week. [patient.info]

  This increased risk of IVH is perhaps due to coagulopathies commonly seen with sepsis. [16] The use of appropriate antibiotics and fresh plasma transfusion in preterm low birth weight babies will, therefore, not only manage sepsis, but also will reduce [atmph.org]

  A univariate analysis was also undertaken to define the relative strengths of the contributory factors, which revealed that coexistent sepsis. [surgicalneurologyint.com]

• Stupor

  The third patient with a left thalamic and basal ganglia hemorrhage, who was initially awake and then lapsed into stupor days later, underwent surgery, but did not recover consciousness. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  There is a change in level of alertness (either stupor or an irritable, hyperalert state). A clue to the occurrence of IVH may be a falling hematocrit or failure of the hematocrit to rise after transfusion. [utmb.edu]

  Infants with severe intraventricular hemorrhage might develop metabolic or respiratory acidosis, apnea, hypotonia and stupor. The newborn might go into a coma. [lecturio.com]

Diagnostic Workup for Intraventricular Hemorrhage in Premature Newborns Laboratory investigations are rarely useful in infants with intraventricular hemorrhage unless the hemorrhage is severe enough to cause metabolic acidosis or respiratory acidosis. [lecturio.com]

These results underscore the need of cerebral angiography and workup for coagulopathies in patients with PIVH. No definite cause was identified in seven (47%) patients and PIVH was assumed to be secondary to hypertension in 6 of these. [jpma.org.pk]

Epidemiology Incidence IVH occurs in 60-70% of neonates weighing 500-750 g and 10-20% of those weighing 1,000-1,500 g. [ 3 ] Prematurity and low birth weight are the most important risk factors for grade IV haemorrhage. [ 4 ] Research is also underway [patient.info]

Injuries to the head, another cause of the aforementioned bleeding can also be sometimes prevented. Still, there is no definitive way of complete and utter prevention of such bleeding. [ic.steadyhealth.com]

How can intraventricular hemorrhage be prevented? There have been many prevention strategies investigated, both antenatal and postnatal, but none has been shown to be clearly effective. [clinicaladvisor.com]

Prevention of IVH Many trials and prevention strategies were based on the general theory that the incidence of IVH would decrease if episodes of cerebral blood flow fluctuations, hypoxia, hypercapnia, and increased venous pressure could be minimized in [ispn.guide]

PREVENTION ANTENATAL PREVENTION Avoid preterm delivery VIT k should be given before delivery to all women receiving phenobarbitone or phenytoin during pregnancy C section of high risk deliveries A single course of antenatal corticosteroids is recommended [slideshare.net]
